Christmas at Lakeside Pakenham was another resounding moment of seasonal joy with hundreds of local families having a special visit with Santa on Saturday 14 December.
Lakeside Residents Group has run this event at Dragon Park for several years now providing photos with Santa, fun activities for children and an all-round family-friendly atmosphere.
Face painting, live music, jumping castles and friendly encounters with Australia’s wildlife were among the many activities enjoyed on the day.
The main event, however, was when the bells started to ring with the arrival of Santa who met the children and sat down for family photos conducted by Craig Holowell Photography, which the residents group organised for the event.
